Default Windows wont work on EX

Like it says the passenger side window work they dont go down form the passenger side or the driver side. All wires are connected and there is no short in the wires either.

Did you check the fuses? You may have blown one. It's No.'s 10 and 11 on the driver's side fuse panel. They are both 20 Amp fuses.

Well, what is it? My window motors are starting to go I think. I was thinking of putting some WD-40 in the window tracks to help the window go up and down. Any suggestions?

Have any of u guys had this happen: I go and press the power window swith to roll up or down or i go to lock/unlock my door and the radio will cut out? It comes on a while later after i fiddle with the window or lock button. This is on a 99 Ex and its the stock radio.

reason i ASKED what year the car was because it may or may not work for the newer cars.

anyhow this happened to me more than once, my window would go down but not up,sometimes vice-versa anyhow after going nuts and checking all the wiring and finding out everything was ok it turned out to be the switch itself, i ended up taking it apart (its not hard) and it seemed the contact points were covered w/ this black reseny looking crap. i cleaned it off w/ alcohol and my windows worked. like 2 yrs later it happend again and i did it again and they worked again!

strange but true, you could buy a new switch but that **** costs like $200!

Could be bad window motor regulators. Check 'em!
